Compound Density / g cm 3 SLD / 10 4 nm 2 v / nm 3 Acetic acid buffer Chitosan C 18: (OCH 2 CH 2 ) 9 OCH 2 COOH (OCH 2 CH 2 ) 9 OH Light scattering Static (SLS) and dynamic (DLS) light scattering measurements were performed simultaneously on the mixed micelle solutions on the same compact ALV/CGS- 3 instrument, equipped with a He-Ne laser with a wavelength of λ = nm. The results are reported in section 2.6 of the supporting information. Experiments were performed at scattering angles θ ranging from 20 to 130 set with an ALV-SP 125 goniometer. Pseudocross correlation functions were recorded using an ALV 5000/E multiple-τ correlator. All measurements were carried out at 25.0(1) C in a thermostatted toluene bath. Absolute scattering intensities were obtained using toluene as a standard, where a Rayleigh ratio of cm 1 for 25 C and nm was used. 1 Isotropic scattering S2
3 is observed from the mixed micelle solutions investigated, and the forward scattering intensity I(0) is obtained from the average of the intensities recorded between 20 to 130. The apparent molecular weight of the micelles of a solution of concentration c, is obtained by means of the following relation: M app w = I(0) K L c (S1) with K L being the optical constant: K L = 4π2 λ 4 N A n 2 0 ( ) 2 dn (S2) dc where N A is the Avogadro constant, n 0 is the refractive index of the solvent and dn/dc cm 3 g 1 is the refractive index increment. Due the high concentration of acetic acid/sodium acetate in the buffer, there is no need to take into account the scattering structure factor for the surfactant micelle solution. 2 The micelle aggregation numbers were obtained neglecting the free surfactant concentration, as justified by the very low cmc of moll 1 for C 18:1 E 9 CH 2 COOH. The mean decay rate Γ(q) was obtained from the field autocorrelation function: 3 g (1) (τ, q) = exp ( Γ(q)τ ) ( 1 + µ 2 2 τ 2 ) (S3) where τ and µ 2 are the delay time and the second moment around the mean, respectively. The apparent diffusion coefficient is obtained as D app = Γ(q)/q 2, from which the hydrodynamic radius (R h ) was obtained, applying the Stokes-Einstein relation: R h = k b T 6πη 0 D app (S4) with η 0 being the solvent viscosity. S3
4 Zeta-potential determination The electrophoretic mobility µ e of the mixed micelles was determined on a Malvern Zetasizer Nano Z, equipped with a He-Ne laser (633 nm). The ζ-potential of the mixed micelles was calculated as: ζ = 3µ e η 2ε 0 ε r f(κa) (S5) with η being the fluid viscosity, ε 0 the vacuum permittivity, ε r the relative permittivity, and f(κa) is the Henry function approximated by: 4 f(κa) = κa + 3(κa) κa + 2(κa) 2 (S6) where κ is the inverse Debye length while a is the particle size approximated by its hydrodynamic radius. 1 H-NMR of surfactants The 1 H-NMR spectrum of C 18:1 E 9 CH 2 COOH and C 18:1 E 9 solubilized in CDCl 3 was recorded on a Brucker Avance II spectrometer operating at 400 MHz. The spectra are reported in Figs. S1 and S2. From the integral of the different peaks, we deduced that the alkyl chain is a 3:1 mixture of oleyl and palmitic alcohol, while on average 8.8 EO units per surfactant chains are present. The degree of carboxymethylation is of 0.9, in agreement with previous results from ph titrations. 2 In Table S2 the predicted and experimentally determined integrals of the 1 H-NMR peaks. In each spectrum one unidentified peak is present: for C 18:1 E 9 CH 2 COOH a very broad peak is observed at δ = 5.6 ppm, representing 3.5 % of the hydrogens in the sample; for C 18:1 E 9 a singlet at 3.3 ppm, representing 2 % of the hydrogens in the sample, is present.

Curves scaled for an improved readability are given in the main text. SANS patterns arising from chitosan - C 18:1 E 9 Ac and C 18:1 E 9 mixtures are reported in Fig. S9. The data can be quantitatively described using the scattering models described in detail elsewhere. 2 Briefly, three structural models are employed (all analytical expressions are also given in the next section of the supporting information): (i) when no or only weak interactions between chitosan and the surfactant micelle are present, no evidence for supramolecular aggregation is found. The scattering patterns of a randomly decorated polymer network or independently distributed surfactant S14
15 micelles and polymer chains in the solution, i.e., no interaction present, are identical. Accordingly, the scattering curves obtained at low ph for χ = 0.0 and at high χ for ph = 4.0 were described as a linear superposition of the scattering pattern arising from the chitosan chains, treated as gaussian coils (Eq. S17), and the surfactant micelles, treated as elongated core-shell micelles (Eq. S7). 2,5 The different contributions and the resulting calculated scattering curve are shown in Fig. S8. (ii) when moderate interactions between chitosan and the surfactant micelle are present. The formation of aggregates with aligned micelles embedded in a chitosan network is found. 2,6 The scattering patterns were described using a model of N aligned core-shell ellipsoids (the micelles) contained in an homogeneous cylinder (the complexed chitosan). 2,7 The scattering form factor is given in Eq. S18. A mass-fractal structure factor with a dimensionality of three is used to take into account the aggregation of the cylindrical subunits (Eq. S23). The model was applied to described the scattering curves from samples with χ = 0 and 3.7 < ph < 4.3, and for ph = 4.0 and 0.5 < χ < 1. (iii) when strong interactions between chitosan and the surfactant micelle are present the aggregates are found to be collapsed into a core-corona structure, with a core formed by densely packed surfactant micelles surrounded by a stabilizing polymer corona, 2,6 a model initially developed by Berret et al. 8 As the size of the micelle and that of the supramolecular aggregate differ by two orders of magnitude (3.5 vs. 150 nm), the scattering form factor can be expressed as the sum of a term arising from dense packed micelles (core-shell ellipsoids with an hard sphere structure factor) and a term from the formed supramolecular structure (a homogeneous core-shell sphere). 2,6 Analytical expressions used for the calculations are given in the next section. The model was applied to described the scattering curves from samples with χ = 0 and ph > 4.05, and for ph = 4.0 and χ = 1.

19 2.5.2 Analytical expression for SANS Data analysis All expression are also reported in the supporting information of Ref. 2 and are reported here for the sake of completeness. Surfactant Micelle The scattering arising from the surfactant micelles is described using a core-shell ellipsoidal model. 10 The scattering form factor is given by: P CS (q) = 1 0 F (q, cos α) 2 d cos α (S7) with α being the angle formed by the scattering vector and the rotational axis of the ellipsoid. F (q, cos α) is the scattering amplitude and is given by [ ] 3j1 (x c ) F (q, cos α) = (SLD c SLD sh ) V c + ( SLD sh SLD ) [ ] 3j1 (x t ) V t x c x t (S8) with SLD sh and SLD being the scattering length densities of the micellar shell and of the medium, respectively. The scattering length density of the shell was obtained as the volume average of the SLDs of the hydrophylic part of the surfactant and the solvent. j 1 (x) is the first order spherical Bessel function: j 1 (x) = sin(x) x cos(x) x 2 (S9) x c and x t are given by: x c = q A 2 cos α 2 + B 2 (1 cos α 2 ) x t = q (A + T ) 2 cos α 2 + (B + T ) 2 (1 cos α 2 ) (S10) (S11) S19

The aggregation number from the volume of the hydrophobic tail of the surfactant (v c ) N agg = 4πAB2 3v c (S15) The water content of the shell was calculated as φ shell w = V sh N agg v s V sh (S16) with V sh = V t V c being the volume of the hydrated shell and v s the average volume of the surfactant headgroup. Chitosan chains The scattering arising from chitosan is described with a gaussian chain model: 11 e q2 Rg 2 + q 2 Rg 2 1 I(q) = 2 I(0)chi q 4 Rg 4 (S17) S20
21 with I(0) chi and Rg being the forward scattering intensity and the radius of gyration of the polymer chain, respectively. In the calculations, the values of I(0) chi of cm 1 and Rg 250 nm, determined for pure chitosan solutions in Ref. 2 were used. N aligned core-shell ellipsoids contained in an homogeneous cylinder The scattering form factor for N-aligned globular objects contained in a homogeneous cylinder, as represented in Fig. S10, results from three contributions: the N aligned ellipsoids (P (q) Nob Nob ), the cylinder (P (q) Cyl Cyl ), and the cross-term (P (q) Nob Cyl ): 7 P (q) agg = P (q) Nob Nob + P (q) Cyl Cyl + P (q) Nob Cyl (S18) with P (q) Nob Nob = cos zn mic 1 cos z [ ( ) 3j1 (x c ) (SLD c SLD sh ) V c + x c (SLD sh SLD cyl ) V t ( 3j1 (x t ) x t )] 2 d cos α (S19) P (q) Cyl Cyl = 1 0 [ (SLDcyl SLD ) πrl 2 j 0 ( ql cos α 2 ) ] 2 J1 (qr sin α) d cos α (S20) qr sin α P (q) Nob Cyl = cos ( z N mic 2 (SLD sh SLD cyl ) V t ( 3j1 (x t ) x t ) ( sin z Nmic ) ( +z 2 sin z [ ( 2) sin ( 3j1 (x ) c ) (SLD z c SLD sh ) V c x 2 c [ (SLDcyl SLD ) ( ) 2 ql cos α πrl 2 J1 (qr sin α) j 0 2 qr sin α )] ) + ] d cos α (S21) with z = qd cos α, j 0 (x) = sin(x)/x and J 1 (x) the first-order cylindrical Bessel function of the first kind. x c and x t are defined in Eqs.

Such a structure can be approximated with a particles in a cylinder model, characterized by an overall extension L, a radius R and a spacing between the centers of the objects of D. D 2R per cylinder and D the spacing between their centers. The scattering length densities were calculated assuming an anhydrous micellar core, a micellar core composed of water and the hydrophilic part of the surfactant, and the cylinder being made of chitosan and solvent. The amount of chitosan in the cylinder is calculated in such a way that charge neutrality is reached within the cylinder. The number density of the cylinders is obtained assuming all surfactant being involved in the complex: 1 N cyl = 1 N N mic = 3φ c 4πN mic AB 2 (S22) A mass-fractal structure factor is used to describe the supramolecular aggregation of the cylindrical building blocks: 2 3 sin (3 arctan(qξ)) S(q) agg = 1 + [ ] (qr 0 ) q 2 ξ 2 (S23) Densely packed micelles in a supramolecular core-shell structure The scattering pattern arising from a supramolecular core-shell structure formed by a core of densely S22
23 packed micelles glued together by chitosan and stabilized by a chitosan shell was obtained as: 2 I(q) = 1 NSAPSA(q) + 1 NPCS(q)SHS(q) (S24) with P SA (q) being the scattering form factor of a homogeneous core-shell sphere, S HS (q) is the hard-sphere structure factor: 12 S HS (q) = ( 1 1 NC 0 (q) ) 1 (S25) with 1 NC 0 (q) = Λ x (sin x x cos x) + Υ (( ) 2 3 x 3 x 1 x cos x + 2 sin x 2 ) 2 x Λφ [ HS 24 (1 2x 3 x + 4 6x ) ( sin x x + 24 ) ] x cos x 2 x 4 (S26) with x = 2R S q, Λ = 24φ HS ( ) 2 ( 1+2φ HS (1 φ HS ) and Υ = 36 φ 2 HS ) 2+φ 2. HS (1 φ HS ) 2 Given the large difference in size between the surfactant micelle and the supramolecular aggregate, the micelle-aggregate cross-term was neglected. The scattering form factor of the supramolecular aggregate is obtained as: [ P SA (q) = V SA c ( SLD SA c ) SLD SA 3 sin ω c 3ω c cos ω c sh + ω 3 c ( Vt SA SLD SA sh SLD ) 3 sin ω sh 3ω sh cos ω sh ωsh 3 ] 2 (S27) with SLD SA c, SLD SA sh, Vc SA and Vt SA being the scattering length densities of the core and the shell of the supraaggregate, and the volume of the core and the total volume of the SA, respectively. ω c = qr SA c and ω sh = qr SA sh with RSA c and R SA s being the radii of the core and the shell of the supraaggregate, respectively. For the calculation a normal distribution of R SA c with a relative standard deviation 0.3 was assumed. S23
24 The number of micelles in the supraaggregate core was obtained combining the radius of the supraaggregate and the hard-sphere radius and volume fraction: N mic = R SA c R 3 HS 3 φ HS (S28) Accordingly, the supraaggregate number density is given by: 1 N SA = 1 N N mic = 3φ c 4πN mic AB 2 (S29) The scattering length density of the core of the supraaggregate was calculated as the volume weighted average of the components (surfactants, chitosan, and solvent): SLD SA c = N micn agg (v c + v s ) 4/3πRc SA 3 SLD surf + φ chχ chi corev ch 4/3πRc SA 3 SLD chi+ ( ) 4/3πRc SA3 N mic N agg (v c + v s ) φ ch χ chi corev ch 4/3πRc SA 3 SLD solv (S30) and the scattering length density of the shell of the supraaggregate as SLD SA sh = 4/3πR SA s φ ch χ chi sh v ch 3 4/3πR SA 3 SLD chi + c ( 4/3πR SA s 3 4/3πR SA3 φ ch χ chi 4/3πR SA s c 3 4/3πR SA c sh v ch ) 3 SLD solv (S31) 2.6 Characterization of pure surfactant mixtures The mixing behavior of the ionic C 18:1 E 9 CH 2 COOH and the nonionic C 18:1 E 9 was investigated both from a thermodynamic and structural perspective. The excess mixing enthalpy were determined via calorimetric titrations (Eqs. 3 and 4 of the main text) and are reported in Fig. S11.

The combination of experimentally determined mixing enthalpy (Fig. S11) and calculated mixing entropy leads to the mixing free energy (Fig. S12). The mixing enthalpy can be expressed as a polynomial expansion: H m = χ(1 χ) i=1 A i (2χ 1) i 1 (S33) Developing the series only to its first term leads to the simple expression H m = Aχ(1 χ), also known as the Porter equation. 14 Given the slight asymetric shape of the excess mixing enthalpy curves, with the maximum around 0.6, Eq. S33 was developed up to the second term, leading to H m = χ(1 χ) [A + B(2χ 1)] (S34) The free energy of mixing was described as: 15 G m /RT = βχ(1 χ) (S35) The mixing enthalpy and the free energy of mixing were fitted with Eqs. S34 and S35, respectively. The obtained values are reported in Table S6. All mixing processes are slightly endothermic, as also found in several surfactant/lipid mixtures. 16 However, the enthalpic contribution is compensated by the mixing entropy, resulting in an exergonic process, i.e. fully miscible micelles are formed, as expected from the chemical similarity of both headgroup and tail (see Fig. S12). Although the simple, first order development S26

S35 does not capture the whole complexity of the system, it offers a useful approach for comparing the β parameter with values found in similar systems. In fact, the values for this system of 2 < β < 1.5 fall within the usual range of anionic-nonionic ethoxylated surfactant mixtures. 15 With increasing ph, i.e. with increasing charge density of the ionic species, the process becomes more endothermic and more asymmetric, as evidenced also by the increasing values of A and B of Eq. S34. This observation can be explained by the fact that with increasing degree of ionization of the surfactants, a larger difference between the headgroups is observed: the area per molecule at the core-shell interface of the surfactant micelle for C 18:1 E 9 CH 2 COOH increases from 59 to 69 Å 2 when ph is varied between 2.7 and As a comparison, the headgroup area of C 16 E 9 at the air-water interface is 53 Å The headgroup size difference is also clearly visible in the micelle aggregation numbers and hydrodynamic radii, as determined by static and dynamic light scattering, respectively (see Fig. S13). With increasing nonionic surfactant content the micelles grow in size, with an hydrodynamic radius increasing from ca. 5 to almost 25 nm, and the aggregation number increasing from ca. 200 to above 3000 molecules per micelle. This is a consequence of an effective decrease of headgroup area requirement, resulting in a larger packing parameter. Almost no differences are observed between mixtures at ph 4.5 and 5.0, while the growth process takes place at lower χ for the more weakly charged system at ph 4.0. The results are in good agreement with previous SANS experiments per- S27

To probe the ionization condition of the micellar aggregate ζ-potential experiments were carried out and are reported in Fig. S14. The different ph has no effect on the determined ζ-potential values, as the additional charges arising from the increased degree of ionization of C 18:1 E 9 CH 2 COOH are compensated by condensed counterions. Moreover, two regions can be identified in the evolution of the ζ-potential with χ: below χ = 0.4, where a ζ-potential value of ca. -25 mv is determined; and for χ > 0.4, where the potential approaches zero, till a neutral surface is obtained for χ = 1, i.e., the pure nonionic surfactant. Similar values are found in other ionic/nonionic mixed micellar systems determined at salt content 0.2 M, as it was in our case. 18, Ionization degree of pure components In Fig. S15 the degree of ionization of chitosan and C 18:1 E 9 CH 2 COOH as a function of ph is reported.
